( Our genial townsman, w. III. Colo
row, is home again after prolonged
hunting and camping trip, during
which he was attacked and cordially
shot at by group of gentlemen who
came to serve a writ of replevin on
him. Colonel Colorow does not know
exactly what the writ of replevin is
for, unless it be for the purpose of ac-
cumulating money for the sheriff.
Few were killed during the engage
ment, except small papoose belong
ing to Mr.. and Mrs. Roll-on-Silver-
Moon, who returned last evening with
the remains of their child. A late
copy of New York paper alludes to
this as furious engagement, after
which the Indians carried off
their dead according to their custom" !"
Mr.. and Mrs. Roll-on-Silver. Moon
were warned against taking the baby
with them on an extended camping
trip, but they seemed to think that it
would be perfectly safe, as the child
was only seven weeks old, and could
not have incurred the hostility of the
war department. This was not inn
probable at all, for, according to the
records, it takes from nine to eleven
weeks to officially irritate the war de-
partment. The little one now lies at
the wigwam of its afflicted parents on
Cavyo street. and certainly does not
look as though it could have stood out
so long against the sheriff and his
posse.
Mrs. Roll-On-Silver- Moon has
painful bullet wound in the shoulder,
but feels so grieved about the loss OF
little Cholera Infantum that she does
not make much fuss over her injury.
The funeral Of the little one will take
place this evening from its late resi-
dence, and friends OF the parents are
cordially invited to come and partici-
pate. Wailing will begin promptly at
sundown.

Your -Own-Ground are Just back from
a summer jaunt in the Little Big
Horn mountains, whittier they went
in search OF health. They returned
laden with golden rod and large
catch OF land-locked grasshoppers.
As soon as they get thoroughly rested
they will announce select locust,
grasshopper and cricket feed at their
home, during which celebrated band
from the Staten Island ferry will
oblige with a new selection known as
"The Cricket on the Hearth"
Major Santee, who is now at home
repairing the roof of his Gothic tepee,
which was so damaged by the recent
storms that it allowed hail, rain and
horned cattle to penetrate his apart
ments at all times of the day and
night, says that in the late great Ute
war everybody wanted to fight except
the Indians and the War Department.
He believes that no Indian outbreak
can be regarded as a success without
the hearty cooperation and godspeed
of the government and quorum of
Indians who are willing to break out
into open hostility. Major Santee lost
niece during the recent encounter.
She was not hostile to any one,
but was respected by all, and
will now cast gloom. She bad
no hard feelings towards the sheriff or
any one of his posse. and had never
met them before. She was very plain
in appearance and this was her first
engagement. The sheriff now claims
that he thought she was reaching for
her gun, whereas it appears that she
was making wild grab for her In
dian trail.
Major Santee says he hopes it will
be many long day before the sheriff
organizes another Ute outbreak and
eompels the Utes to come and bring
their families. He says that human
life here now is so cheap, especially
the red style of human life, that
sometimes he is almost tempted to
steal 100000. and 60 to New York,
where he will be safe.-[Bill Nye in
